No. For one thing, Mercury is toxic.
Second, because it is a liquid at room temeprature it would makea very poor choice for making coins.
Thermometers used to have Mercury in them because it is very temperature reactive and a liquid across most temperatures measured in everyday life. However, this practice has been discontinued due to the health risks associated with contact with mercury from broken thermometers; most analog thermometers today use colored ethanol as the measuring fluid.
we use mercury lamp instead of ordinary lamp because ordinary lamp has many wavelengths when mercury lamp has single wavelength so in constant deviation we use only mercury lamp.

At lower temperatures water will freeze and mercury will not.
Lydians have invented coins, in which we still use today. In fact, they were the first to mint(make) coins.

1916 to 1945. The coins were supposed to be called Liberty dimes but the winged cap on Liberty's head made her look like the Greek god Mercury. They were almost immediately nicknamed Mercury dimes and that's what they're called today.
1935 Mercury Head dimes are common date coins. Most are only valued for the silver. Today it's $1.32.
Coins today are typically made of a combination of metal alloys, such as copper, nickel, and zinc. Different denominations may have different compositions to ensure durability and cost-effectiveness. Some countries are also exploring alternative materials like polymer or composite materials for their coins.
